Sony updates PlayStation 3 to support 3D TV

Sony's Playstation 3 is now compatible with stereoscopic 3D games, providing users perform the required firmware update to their system.

Updates to the PS3s -- firmware 3.30, made available yesterday -- will allow gamers to play the next generation of stereoscopic 3D games, which will start to become available over the coming months and will compliment the launch of Sony's new range of 3D TVs.

The firmware also updates the version of Flash used in the PS3's web browser, which should make viewing sites such as YouTube less frustrating.

New features include PC Remote Play, that will allow your PS3 to be remotely operated by upcoming models of Sony Vaio computers, BD Audio Output and the ability to sort Trophies into folders or by game title or date achieved.

Sony has also fixed a bug relating to the playing of some region-free Blu-ray disks.
